I just watched the play again and cannot see how you can argue that Bowe wasn't open.

I say let's just put Moeaki in the #1 WR slot and put Bowe at #3, just sayin......
Yeah, I didn't get to watch the entire game, but someone said Moeaki did have the most receiving yards at 50 yesterday?? I must have missed some plays with Moeaki, cause one of my thoughts was we didn't use him enough, nor Thomas Jones. I sorta felt like we were wearing Charles out, not alternating more with Jones, who has played well.
Heck, may sound off the wall...but why not use McCluster more often in pass plays as well, considering our starting WR's seem to be having issues dropping balls or missing catches. College coaches have said his size doesn't matter, that he was accomplished as a WR, & his play shouldn't be limited to a slot WR, kick returner.
I agree with Fig. We played a great game on D and would have been a great game on offensive (as far as scoring) if charles didnt fumble twice..(yes twice) the first one cost us a easy 1st and goal at the 4-5 yd line and the other was the second when we were in great scoring position.
We beat our selves and should have won, I am not hapy but I am not really mad either i am kinda in limbo today..
atleast we are still 2 games upo in our division.. Houston is now a must win IMO
I just think the hit on Charles was a solid hit. Not too many RB's could have hung onto that ball. It was a very good and clean hit. I don't blame Charles for that one. If any blame at all has to go out, it goes out to Bowe. Don't get me wrong, I'm not gettin Neg. here I'm just sayin:chiefs:
I must have missed Charles' 2nd fumble, but this one I did see, and agree...it was a HARD hit, and I was worried for second it might have hurt him, but apparently not. It also looked to me in the replay that the guy who hit him punched the ball out as he hit him.
The first fumble was not a fumble. He lost control of the ball for a second but kept ahold of it. He never really lost it.
but it definetely cost us the 1st down and maybe a TD, you cannot deny that
Yep, the defender got his arms and caused Charles to lose control of the ball a bit, and that slowed Charles down just enough to not make it to the first down marker.
People pissed on the Colts defense the whole two weeks and the whole season, but they are a really good defense at home.
